Singer-Songwriter, Storyteller, and Author, Jeff Wall has been called a Bigdumbhick for most of his life.

Yes, there is no doubt that he is excessively large and Yeti looking, and he smells funky when he gets wet, but he’s not dumb in spite of what your initial impression might indicate, and as to being a hick, well that’s mighty subjective.

Hailing from the Winston-Salem/Triad region of North Carolina, at 6’7”, and somewhere around 325lbs, he’s not just big, he is damned big. “Full-grown” as they say around those parts. Usually found in a worn pair of bib-overalls, if he’s wearing anything at all, he is a wise-cracking, cigar-smoking, self-depreciating, bad-ass acoustic guitar-slinger, and a hilarious entertainer to boot.

A man of many surprises, his show is unlike anything you have ever experienced, and it is nothing like you would ever expect, especially from anyone who looks like he looks. There is a lot of heart here (recently repaired heart too). There is a lot of everything here.

With a background in Bluegrass and Traditional Country Music, he lays down a groove so strong it could break your grandma’s hip. He is a fearless, natural performer, one with a penchant for writing catchy, darkly humorous, yet easily relatable songs. Songs that particularly resonate with the over-50, “get-off-of-my-damn-lawn”, AARP membership demographic. One moment he will have you grooving along, howling with laughter, but then unexpectedly he will hit you with something extremely raw, deep, moving, and personal, causing your jaw, and occasionally a few tears to hit the ground.

What you see is what you get. This is no act, this is who he is. There is no pretense, no posturing, no bullshit. Well, maybe a little bullshit, but he is authentic. He is what he is and he ain’t ashamed of it.

He can be found playing bars, breweries, festivals, house concerts, and the occasional nudist resort, throughout the Southeastern US (WV, VA, NC, SC, GA, TN)

If you like Todd Snider, John Prine, Rodney Carrington, or Tim Wilson, you will probably like the Bigdumbhick.
